Drop Wedge has some hellacious concave, boo the the short length.

Light as a feather; but sadly, they don't turn (at least with the stock bushing/kingpin setup on an Executioner). Make them turn like Indys and I'd definitely buy a set for my longboard.

That is one nice magazine. Hats off to all involved in publishing it. Bright, colorful, thoroughly researched, and full of good reading. I can't think of an excuse not to subscribe anymore.

Now get over yourselves and get back to work!

[satori]

Most deluded: Lynn Cooper as a self-proclaimed "Skate Legend"
Worst Logo: Slip Tape (brooklyn kid=fail)
Best Novelty Shape: Beer Run
Worst Shapes: (3-way tie) Dregs Weapon, Seismic's full line of hammerhead longboards (sorry, not quite classic, Dan), everything Blackkross
The Runway Award (looks good; but it's not for me): Factory 13's awesome routered pigs.
Most Disappointing Graphics: Gravity (the pinstripe/hot rod thing is hot; but what's with the wave pictures?)
Looks Promising: Banks Cove
The Communism Award (looks good on paper; not so much in real life): Heron trucks. Make 'em turn like Indys and I'll buy 3 sets yesterday.
Worst Pro Model: Messiah's Jesus boards.
Best Pro Model: Kebbek Nico.
Most Mediocre: Rivera Longboards (baltic birch pintails! mini cruisers! innovative!).
Rocco Award (Ballsiest Graphic): Shut NYC's Box Cutter.
Worst Company Name: Slow Motion Longboards.
Biggest bandwagon: zip zinger-esque minis, pintails.
Best Slogan: Earthwing: souped up, tricked out, built for speed.
Coach Award (nice stuff that I don't want to pay retail for): Dead Dog skate shorts.
Madonna Award (best comeback): Randal Trucks
Zombie Award (for resurrecting old shapes that died a natural death): Churchill AK-45

That's so rad...drifter...I love that, I need to get one of those things.

[sk8norcal]

just curious,

do the manufacturers have to pay to be listed?

[MJKam11]

I never heard of the Nemesis, any thoughts on it? The shape looks really sick.

Great guide btw, I like the format.

[haole haole]

the "fine print" spread, p 14-15. where is that? who is that? when is that? looks very familiar.
beautiful sky, deep blue ocean, no shirt boardshorts and slippers. has to be hawaii?

[Sunny]

Man i dont get that "secret" word thing... i just read the whole thin in 200% zoom and dint find nuthin... a little more info please? if its a word then it could be anything exp "I like to long board" and "to" is the secret word lol.

[skategeezer]

if you advertise in cw, you get a listing
you only have to advertise a single time to get listed
as for the opener, it's hawaii

[Woody Trend]

No, you're spot on - that #### is tight!

[skategeezer]

Woody, that cover is incredible.
THANK YOU!

[Woody Trend]

Thanks!

I have a lot of skateboarding pieces that i'm working on for a big show we're going to have at Woody's Halfpipe in Georgia.

Concrete Wave and Woody's Halfpipe are the places to stay tuned for more details.
